If It Was Not For Poetry
If It Wasn'r For Poetry
If it wasn't for poetry,
I’ve never been comforted
from the loss of my loved ones,
pets’ demise, worries and anxiety.
It was poetry that cheered me up,
caressed the wounds in my heart,
as I poured out in words my thoughts
and feelings in God’s mercy and light.
If it wasn't for poetry, no sweet accounts
of all the people I love, places and nature
I admire, no praise and thanksgiving to God
by sharing His words, blessings, power and love.
If it wasn’t for poetry, I’ve no creative diary
of my memorable good and bad times,
no aesthetic expression of love, appreciation
with greetings and wishes to everyone.
.
If it was not for poetry,
what a boring and futile life I have,
Oftentimes tired at work, sickly, no smiles
nor laughter… always breathing so sad.
